Zhang Nan's voice stopped Li Er.

"What's the matter with Qingquan?" Li Er put down his pen and asked.

"Your Majesty, can you please let me say a few words?" Zhang Nan asked.

"Of course, just say whatever you want." Li Erdao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he turned his head and said to Li Jing: "General, if you dare to ask the general, you will regard the expedition of the Turks as the general's last battle. Is the general satisfied?"

"Of course I am..." Li Jing was about to say that he was satisfied, but he couldn't say that. After all, the army was not very useful in this expedition to the Turks. He relied on surprise soldiers to chase the Jiliman grassland. Moreover, when he finally caught Jili, he was not at the scene. If he was satisfied, it would definitely be fake.

"The general can't say it anymore. Your Majesty, borrow the globe for use." After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he picked up the globe on Li Er's table and held it in front of Li Jing.

"Look at this great country of food, the people who now believe in Islam, holding a knife in one hand and holding the Quran in the other. All those who do not believe in their religion are aliens and will be executed. They are in the period of the Four Caliphs. Its territory starts from the Indus River and the western border of China, to the Atlantic coast in the west, to the southern part of the North Dalhia Sea, and to the Arabian Sea in the south. This is not something that a small Turk can compare to."

After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he turned the globe and continued, "The General is looking at the Byzantine Empire, which is the Roman Kingdom we called in the Tang Dynasty. It is a country that believes in Orthodoxism. Its territory once included western Asia and northern Africa. At its peak, it also included Italy, Syria, Palestine, Egypt and the Mediterranean coast of North Africa. They are very strong and advocate force. Even with our current Kage Wind Crossbow and Thunder, I guess the winning rate is only 37."

"If the general dares not take action against these countries that blocked the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the world, it can only prove that I misjudged the general. It turns out that the general is old and has no courage to defeat the enemy." Zhang Nan's method of provoking generals was very clumsy, but Li Jing was still angry. A general can be defeated and he can also kill himself. However, if a general is afraid of death and has no desire to conquer, it is a great insult to this general.

"Why don't I have the courage? If the emperor gave me enough troops and food, I can now flatten these places for the emperor." Li Jing said loudly.

"Since that's the case, why do the general still beg for bones? The general is a pillar of the country. He retired like this. Don't you feel a loss?" Zhang Nan said with a smile.

"Retirement?" Li Er and Li Jing said in unison.

"Oh, it means that people who work are disabled due to old age or work, illness, completely lost their ability to work or partially lose their ability to work. Simply put, if they are disabled, they cannot work or are unable to move, and the other retirement is just four words, they are just eating and waiting to die." Zhang Nan said with a smile.

"I will not just wait for death. I will go to the Tang Military Academy to teach and teach this skill without reservation." Li Jing stroked his beard and said.

"If you encounter war again, the emperor needs the general's strength, what should the general do?" Zhang Nan asked.

"Then I am naturally obliged. Even if I have given up my old bones, as long as the emperor needs them, I will naturally continue to fight for the emperor in the east and west." Li Jing said firmly.

When Zhang Nan heard this, he turned around and said to Li Er, "Emperor, since that's the case, what else is there to worry about the emperor? General Li Jing will be summoned back if there is a fight. Will the emperor still be able to fulfill General Li Jing?"

Li Er nodded and said, "With this pharmacist's words, I feel relieved. It seems that I want to let the pharmacist fight for me in the east and west, so I have to prepare for the next battle as soon as possible." Li Er said with a smile.

After Li Er finished speaking, he waved his pen and agreed to Li Jing's "retirement application".

"By the way, I will give you meritorious contributions to the pharmacist, you generals who go to the expedition in the afternoon. The pharmacist must prepare well." Li Er said.

"Thank you, the emperor." Li Jing couldn't help but say happily when he saw Li Er agreeing to retire.

Li Er also smiled and waved his hand. After all, Li Jing said everything that was worthy of it. Li Er couldn't agree if he didn't agree. What was Li Jing thinking? Li Er's heart was as bright as a mirror, but it would be enough for everyone to understand this kind of thing in his heart.

Li Jing left, and Li Er asked Zhang Nan: "Qingquan, what do you think of the pharmacist begging for bones?"

"What else can I think? General Li Jing is indeed old, so it's not surprising that he has this requirement." Zhang Nan said.

Hearing Zhang Nan's answer, Li Er did not continue to ask, but said, "By the way, what are you going to do with these 100,000 Turkic slaves?"

"First build the Tang Medical College. After all, the emperor has promised Master Sun. Moreover, Master Sun has also helped the military academy to do a lot of things and trained the military academy students to first aid on the battlefield. I think the emperor must do what he promised Master Sun." Zhang Nan thought for a while and said.

"Well, it's the same as I thought, but it won't take as many as 100,000 people to build a Tang Dynasty Medical College, and what about the rest." Li Erdao.

"The rest of the people will be sent to the border to repair the city walls. If they can't use it, there will be disasters to let them go. After all, this is a free labor force, and it doesn't take care of it. Moreover, the more the emperor uses these Turks, the higher the emperor's prestige in the hearts of the people, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone." Zhang Nan said with a smile.

"You are right. I have this plan. It would be great if I could exempt the world from labor service. This is a merit I have never achieved before. If I do it, I must go to Mount Tai for the Fengshan Mountains." Li Er showed a fascination.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as this labor reform is used properly, it is certain that you will be exempted from labor service, but it's just a matter of time." Zhang Nan said with a smile.

"I understand that, however, these 100,000 Turkic slaves seem to be a lot, but the territory of our Tang Dynasty is vast. If you really want to scatter these 100,000 Turkic slaves carefully, it will undoubtedly be a mud cow that goes into the sea and never returns. It is not enough. I still have to plan the next battle from now on." After Li Er said that, he focused his attention on the map and began to select the next opponent.

"Qingquan, tell me how long it will take to fight Goguryeo." Li Er suddenly saw a place and asked.

"This... I really don't know." Zhang Nan did not lie, because Comrade Li Er had fought with Goguryeo for the first time and it was the 19th year of Zhenguan. There was still fifteen years left. Who knows what the Tang Dynasty could develop in the fifteen years? If more thermal weapons could be created, it would probably take several months to destroy Goguryeo.
